A tout seigneur, tout honneur. On pourrait parler d'une Impératrice du Jazz vocal. Sarah Vaughan est certainement l'une des voix les plus marquantes et spectaculaires de l'histoire du Jazz. Marques de fabrique : tessiture incroyable et cabotinage hors norme.
We must give honor when honor is due. We could even say that we are talking here about the "Empress of Vocal Jazz". Sarah Vaughan is certainly one of the most spectacular and striking voices of Jazz History. Her trade mark : a voice ranging from lowest to highest registers as well as an outstanding sense of... showing off.
Note de dégustation : capiteux et fruité.
Testing note : heady and fruity.
Score : Grand cru classé.
Track 16 : I can't give you anything but love (D. Fields / Mc Hugh).
Great idea for a blog. I like the concept of comparing great wine to great singing.
GOOD LUCK to you!

Dear Philippe, as your correspondent from New York, I suggest that you listen to a great jazz fm station in Newark, New Jersey called WBGO. The website is - http://www.wbgo.org/listennow/ - similar perhaps to TSF jazz in Paris, but I think it's definitely worth listening to. Enjoy! George
